Artur Beterbiev vs prime Earnie Shavers (Boxing Evolution Theory)

Pound for pound, Beterbiev is the best and most powerful puncher in boxing.

People need to watch Round 5, 7 and 9 of the Browne fight to see what a beatdown he was putting on Browne. Savage and effecient.

Canelo is in a world of pain if they cross paths.

 

• Of course half-wits here want to deny the natural progression of spots and boxing. If a unskilled pillowfisted sub-cruiser like Quarry could pick apart Shavers in 1 then best believe a highly skilled hard hitting modern Light Heavyweight such as Beterbiev would do it in mere seconds.

• Shavers has never faced the type of pressure that Beterbeiv could apply and a modern hard hitting light heavyweight athlete like Artur Beterbiev or Adonis Stevenson most definitely punches harder than several old fashioned unskilled heavyweight bus drivers from the prehistoric age

• Earnie Shavers was 6 foot and 210 pounds. He's just about the average size of a cruiserweight and is tiny compared to a big cruiser like Gassiev (six four, 230 plus pounds) or Okolie (six five, probably also around 230 pounds in the ring), let alone giant modern day super heavyweights like Klitschko, Wilder, Whyte, Joshua, Makmudov. Shavers is featherfisted compared to heavyweights nowadays and there is no evidence to show that he even hits as hard as 250 pound Chisora

• Beterbiev annihilates every pre-80s "heavyweight" not named Foreman or Holmes. I highly doubt a slow as molasses, plodding nit-wit like Liston even beats Beterbiev

 

Nobody weighing less than 96 kg could have beat Shavers, he hit harder than anyone under that weight and anyone with a 73 inch reach would not stand a chance v Earnie either.

 

Shavers hit harder than any cruiserweight in history.

 

Usyk boxed Beterbiev`s ears off in the amateurs.

 

Frazier would have destroyed any heavyweight today aside from Usyk who boxed Beterbiev`s ears off in the amateurs.

 

Ali was completely shot and out of shape v Shavers, dropping Holmes was far more impressive something Beterbiev couldn`t have dreamed of.

 

Nobody with a 73 inch reach would stand a chance v a hard punching heavy with a 79 inch reach.

 

Ray Leonard had a longer reach than Beterbiev, let that sink in.

 

His reach is only 73 inches, Moorer could move up cause he had the same length reach as Ali and Usyk, this is madness.

 

His jab would be far too short the first hook Earnie lands, it`s over.

 

Usyk P4P is on another planet to Beterbiev, his jab is better and longer, AJ would KO Beterbiev in 2 rounds, Moorer would have out-jabbed Beterbiev as would Ali have because they both have a 78 inch reach and would have been too fast and sharp for Beterbiev.
